MV MI AMIGO PART TWO.
Four superb photos from Theo Dencker Germany. Den Haag in the background
Number two
23 wheel drive
Not riding on but through the waves
On August 30,1974 she was back off the UK Kent coast in the Knock Deep Channel
Aha, clean bridge
Nice day for a tender
No longer on 259, but 319 medium wave
Summer of 1979, diesel barrels on the deckhouse
The last summer afloat
Damage caused by the tender
Must have been a big bang

The new main studio for the Dutch/Flemish programmes during 78,79 and early 1980.The studio was situated in the former studio two in the deckhouse.
The former live studio, now used for the news on Radio Mi Amigo/Dutch Caroline
The English service now came from a studio below deck, no portholes
Close up of the Gates Studioette that had served Caroline for such a long time
Jingle and commercial carts in the Caroline studio
Close up of the mixer used by Dutch Caroline during 1979 and early 1980. This and the next 8 photos made by Hans- Joachim Backhus Germany in the summer of 1979
Johan Visser inbetween 2 records, thinking what to say next
Still in use, an old Spotmaster cart machine
This studio onboard Mi Amigo had the luxury of two portholes, instead of one in the original studio, and a smiling lady.
The best thing about studios onboard radioships......there is No telephone, so no stupid games on air
Again Johan Visser and a look through the glass into the other studio.
Hans-Joachim behind the Gates downstairs in the English Caroline studio
